Bill went to Logan this morning and played golf this afternoon. So I ran the office. Not so bad. Only I was sick all day ?Cholera morlin?. Mrs. Davis gave me paregoric and castor oil when I got home.
Soaked in a hot bath. I wish I had something to eat but I’m too lazy to go get anything.

Wednesday August 21st 1935 card from Wall-E lost his job before he started but got another one. I feel so discouraged.
Stopped at several shops tonight looking for a linen print but no luck.
Just fooled around this evening. White shoes looking very gray.
Are we downhearted?
YES.

Had a bath.

Sweet Walt- How much I love you. Went to the show with Louis tonight. You have to go with someone you don’t love to realize how much nicer it is to go with someone you do.
Laura, Ed, Louis and I were going to see Will Rogers in “Doubting Thomas” but so we’re about 1,000 other people. So we saw Jean Harlow, William Powell, F Tone in “Ruthless”

Rode to work as a hitchhiker.
Louis called this morning saying High St. wanted Wally to come back. But in mornings mail I had a card saying he got a job at the Silk Mill- Oh me.
He and Bernard Brooks and Rosy met me at work about 1:30. Ate at Louis’s restaurant and I took him to his room. Wally moved out.
Wally and I went up town last and met Bernard Brooks and Margaret. We all went to show. Wally got Bernard’s car and drove it home about 12:30. Saw “Ginger”

Will Rogers and Wiley Post were killed in an airplane accident in Alaska last night.
Got a letter from Wally and Bernard Brooks.
Wally is going on a picnic with 10th Avenue. Kids but they called it off because of terrible rain last night.
Laura and I spent the evening reading papers and add a Coke.
